Something On My Mind by The Pale Fountains is now available for mailorder customers (£15.00 plus postage at cost). The vinyl album features six Crepuscule studio tracks plus six more recorded live in Belgium in October 1982. The bonus live CD features two complete gigs from the same tour.

What the papers said:

"A fresh wind comes blowing across the Mersey, a wind that captures the innocence of the best Postcard single. A slow samba beat, a warm 12-string guitar, and a trumpet to make you weep. The Pale Fountains wear their hearts on their sleeves" (Record Mirror, 07/1982)
"The Pale Fountains come from Liverpool. They sound as if they come from heaven... A positively Bacharachian interplay of instruments and a staggering talent for writing catchy pop songs that outshines anything I've heard for so long" (Masterbag, 07/1982)
"I thought the Pale Fountains would be too sweet for my sugar-free diet, but these Liverpool lads are incredibly beguiling. Their simplicity and acoustic guitars win hearts, with a raw innocence that bites. One lonely trumpet lights their fire. Jose Feliciano raises his head. Love comes in spurts" (Sounds, 10/1982)
